The full scale of the horror at the Southern Border can be revealed as DailyMail.com discovered bones piled up and migrant bodies that are too hot to touch. Asylum seekers are being funneled through a remote part of the desert- just outside of El Paso, Texas, where New Mexico, Texas and Mexico all meet. With 82 deaths in the region so far this fiscal year, the US Border Patrol in El Paso Sector believes it's on track to see the deadliest year for the zone that includes West Texas and all of southern New Mexico. By comparison, at this time...

NEW: In an internal memo to ICE— The ERO Executive Associate Director says that CBP and ERO will not question illegal immigrants who cross the southern border and are processed for expedited removal while the limitation is in effect regarding their fear of return... “If a noncitizen subject to the Presidential Proclamation is processed for expedited removal and manifests fear or an intention to apply for asylum or related protection while detained in ICE custody, the noncitizen must be referred to USCIS…” One source saying, “In other words nothing has changed…”

Washington — In an exclusive interview with CBS News, U.S. Border Patrol chief Jason Owens called the situation at the southern border a "national security threat," expressing concern about tens of thousands of migrants who have evaded apprehension and entered the country surreptitiously over the past five months. Owens said Border Patrol is "closing in" on recording one million apprehensions of migrants in between ports of entry along the U.S.-Mexico border in the 2024 fiscal year, which started in October. For the third consecutive year, his agency is on track to record two million apprehensions by the time the fiscal...

New York City Eric Adams has canceled his trip to the southern border on the grounds it is not safe enough for him to visit. Adams, whose city is at breaking point under the pressure of tens of thousands of illegal aliens expecting hospitality, had been invited to the visit area of Sister Norma Pimentel, executive director of the Catholic Charities of the Rio Grande Valley in San Juan. According to The New York Post, mayoral spokeswoman Amaris Cockfield confirmed the cancelation in a statement Saturday: As Lent draws to a close, our team was excited to stand with faith...

For decades, progressives have dreamed of changing Texas from a “red” Republican state to a “blue” Democrat one. This dream is realistic because Democrats have succeeded in turning several western states “blue.”For example, California was the state that launched the political career of President Ronald Reagan. Prior to his presidency, Reagan served two terms as Governor of California. Today, California is a progressive wasteland, rapidly losing population and businesses.Not long ago, Republicans controlled Washington, Oregon, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, and Colorado. Today, Democrats either totally or partially lead those states.One of the major reasons these states have become Democrat bastions...

Joe Biden has called out the cavalry to ride to the rescue of illegal aliens breaking into the country. You read that right. Joe Biden is listening to his far-left base and has nationalized a National Guard contingent to "support the federal government’s U.S.-Mexico border control efforts," which is to say Biden's opening up of the Southern Border to the illegal invasion. The left has been urging President Biden to federalize National Guard troops to reopen Texas's border where illegal immigrants have been overrunning the state. It appears Biden has begun the process of doing that by ordering the Alaska...

As the United States grapples with one of the worst border crises in history, President Joe Biden’s border czar is declaring the need for more illegal migrants in the country. During an interview with the New York Times, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas claimed that American business owners need more immigrants to help fill jobs. Mayorkas pitched an outlandish idea that the U.S. needs a high-migration system so that labor needs can be filled. He advocated for the expansion of legal pathways, allowing illegal immigrants to work and live in the U.S. Wouldn’t it be more orderly, and wouldn’t it...

Democrat accomplice media have been misrepresenting nearly everything about Texas’ efforts to secure the border. But it’s time to separate fact from fiction. For starters: No, Texas isn’t flouting the Supreme Court. Last week, the court vacated a lower court injunction that prohibited the federal government from removing razor-wire fencing that Texas had erected on the border. Coverage of both the decision and Texas’ response was replete with errors. For instance, Vox inaccurately headlined its article on the high court’s decision, “The Supreme Court Says No, Texas Can’t Use Razor Wire to Restrain Federal Agents.” And soon after the court...

Truckers are planning to make stops in Eagle Pass, Texas; Yuma, Arizona; San Ysidro, California-- all illegal immigrant crossing hot spots

Something I did not know and I suspect many do not know, but it is NOT the National Guard at the Southern border but the state of Texas's own military! Texas has a military branch not connected with the Federal Government.

There is absolutely no doubt – Elements of our own government are deliberately encouraging the acceleration of illegal immigration across the southern border and they are actively sabotaging any attempts to stop the madness.There are two questions we need to ask: Why are they doing this? And, what can be done to stop them?’In a move that I think debunks any claims that the Biden Administration wants a secure border, the federal government recently challenged Texas efforts to install border fencing and barbed wire to prevent the massive influx of foreigners raiding the US. This is after several incidents in...

“In its modern history the U.S. has never suffered an invasion of the homeland and, yet, one is unfolding now,” the FBI executives wrote in letter to congressional leadership With a constitutional crisis brewing in Texas and voters nationwide alarmed by the toll of illegal immigration, some of the FBI’s most famous retired executives are issuing a stark warning to Congress that President Joe Biden’s border policies have unleashed an “invasion” of military-aged male foreigners who pose “one of the most pernicious ever” threats to American security. Ten former FBI executives -- some who oversaw the bureau’s intelligence, counterterrorism, criminal...

A reporter’s interaction with an illegal alien at the US-Mexico border went viral after the migrant mysteriously claimed people would soon know his name. “If you are smart enough, you will know who I am, but you are really not smart enough to know who I am,” the unidentified man speaking English told reporters with 1st Responders Media. “Believe me,” he continued, adding he’s “better than that” when reporters described him as “entitled.” Many on social media took the man’s words to mean he’s planning on committing terroristic acts in the future once inside the US, for which he would...

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) told reporters Wednesday that he expects the Senate to consider a bipartisan deal on Ukraine funding and border security next week. McConnell noted that Democrats control the Senate agenda but he stated his confidence that negotiators will unveil a deal on border security in the next few days. “My assumption is we’re likely to be on that in the Senate next week,” he announced. GOP leaders say the remaining sticking point is a disagreement over President Biden’s authority to parole migrants encountered at the southern border into the country.

Amid the still-worsening border chaos created by the policies of President Joe Biden, Texas has refused to accept what the Secretary of Homeland Security still can't bring himself to call a "crisis." The Lone Star State's latest action on Thursday: seizing a swath of city-owned parkland along the Rio Grande in Eagle Pass, kicking federal border agents off the property, and enforcing the international border with Mexico. Shelby Park — the land seized by the Texas National Guard — sits adjacent to the International Bridge where surges of illegal immigrants stream into the U.S. Over the span of just a...

Washington — Texas state officials this week abruptly blocked federal U.S. Border Patrol agents from entering and patrolling a public area in the border town of Eagle Pass where they typically first encounter migrants who cross the Rio Grande illegally, two U.S. officials told CBS News on Thursday. After seizing control of Shelby Park in Eagle Pass, Texas National Guard units deployed by Republican Gov. Greg Abbott have prevented Border Patrol agents from entering the area, the federal officials said. Border Patrol has used the park in recent weeks to hold migrants in an outdoor staging area before they are...

The situation at the U.S. southern border continues to worsen (except not according to the Biden White House): NEW: Lukeville, AZ right now. Only 2 Border Patrol agents here to move this mass of hundreds of illegal immigrants from around the world to a processing area. We continue to see enormous numbers of men from Africa who tell us they are going to sanctuary cities around the US. pic.twitter.com/zTSVLJFTGp — Bill Melugin (@BillMelugin_) December 22, 2023 Looks like another mass illegal crossing is taking place in Eagle Pass this evening. https://t.co/lcj7ZdY4aa — Bill Melugin (@BillMelugin_) December 21, 2023 Yep, they...

Republican senators have sounded the alarm on the Biden administration's border policies after Border Patrol agents caught illegal border crossers who were carrying explosive devices that Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) said were "tailor-made for terrorism." Mr. Barrasso, who is the Senate Republican Conference Chairman, made the startling revelation at a press conference on Oct. 31, alongside Sens. John Cornyn (R-Texas), Ted Cruz (R-Texas), and Pete Ricketts (R-Neb.), following their recent visit to the U.S.–Mexico border.

U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) apprehended a record number of migrants crossing the southwest border last month, breaking the previous monthly record set in December, according to new numbers out Saturday. Federal border agents reported 269,735 apprehensions in September, bringing the total for fiscal year 2023 to more than 2.47 million. That number is up from nearly 2.38 million arrests in fiscal year 2022 and more than 1.73 million in 2021. Just more than 458,000 were documented in 2020, the final year of President Donald Trump’s administration. Border Patrol’s September numbers mark a more than 18 percent spike in...

Ep. 30 What's happening at the southern border isn’t just an invasion, but a crime. The politicians and NGOs responsible for it are criminals, who should be punished accordingly. https://twitter.com/TuckerCarlson/status/1712588957534360034?s=20
